The species is under taxonomic review and will be split into two species at Panama, the southern population is P. personatus (L. Davalos pers. comm.). Often placed in the subgenus Chilonycteris (e.g., Smith 1972, Simmons and Conway 2001), but recent molecular studies suggest that it represents an unnamed subgenus (Lewis-Oritt et al . 2001, Van Den Bussche and Weyandt 2003).	100000000	Pteronotus personatus	Least Concern		2016	2016-07-09 00:00:00 UTC	3.1	English	This species is listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, presumed large population, it occurs in a number of protected areas, and because it is unlikely to be declining at nearly the rate required to qualify for listing in a threatened category.	This species is low flying aerial insectivore that feeds on many scarab beetles, as well as other insects. It generally occurs below 400 m and is strongly associated with mountains in tropical wet forest and savannas. It roosts in large caves, often with other species of mormoopid bats (Eisenberg and Redford 1999, Emmons and Feer 1997, Handley 1976, Reid 2009 and Molinari pers. comm). Also collected in secondary forests and deciduous forests (Eisenberg 1989).	There are no major threats to this species throughout its range.	The species is not rare though is difficult to collect, less common than other species in the genus (Molinari pers. comm). It seems to be more abundant in areas with water (Miller pers. comm).	Stable	This species occurs throughout Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Bolivia,Venezuela, Guyana and Surinam to south Sonora and south Tamaulipas (Mexico), it also is found on Trinidad (Simmons 2005).
